Calibration Over the GPIB
You can calibrate the dc source by using SCPI commands within your controller programming
statements. Be sure you are familiar with calibration from the front panel before you calibrate from a
controller. Each front panel calibration command has a corresponding SCPI command. When you write
your calibration program, perform the calibration procedure in the same order as the front panel
procedure documented in this appendix.
The SCPI calibration commands are explained in chapter 3 of the dc source Programming Guide.
Calibration error messages that can occur during GPIB calibration are shown in table B-3.
